Come enjoy the fresh ocean air and free books this summer at the Open-Air Library in Sidney, BC!

Join us in the summer of 2019 for the fifth-annual Open Air Library! The Open-Air Library is a free program sponsored by Saanich Peninsula Literacy in partnership with The Town of Sidney, Peninsula “1000 X 5” Children’s Book Recycling Project, GVPL, Sidney / North Saanich Library, Peninsula Connections for Early Childhood, Sidney by the Sea Rotary and many others.

Everyone is welcome to visit us at Iroquois Park next to the putting green to select from a wide range of reading materials, relax with a good book on our cozy blankets, enjoy the fresh air and take home a book afterwards. Reading materials are available for all ages; there is no need to register, this is a FREE drop-in program.

Spend your day at Iroquois Park where children can enjoy the splash pad, playground and nearby green space. There is a tennis court and ball court as well as the Sidney Food Bank all nestled in nicely together to create a great community space for all to enjoy!
